I just like to bump up this message, i also feel like the mi8 is way to easy to kill. ( i dident fly it much for several month in 2019, dont know if it was updated ). (also from a gameplay point of view it would be more fun if it become damaged and limping down on one engine or putting out fire ect than dying. My experience is that i should fly high and use rockets from max distance and els stay outside the range of enemy's... the mi8 do have MG gun ect. but its when you try to fight with it, that you die. ( but els fantastic helicopter )

Multicrew would be cool.. ( as pilot and if person could jump to the gunner possition as well. But if its realistic, well i dont think we will ever see it. Lets put it this way, the Mi8 i would say have finished development and now they maybe do a hotfix now and then so it will continue being compatible. The mi8 do still sell copys now and then but DLC is a bit of a "niche" kind of thing and lets face it... It cost to develope and update a sim, and you cant have developers sitting arround waiting for money while they maybe today are working on something els. But it would be cool with multicrew, but is it really that big a features that will make the mi8 more attractive to most players also vs how many who will actual use it, then i think its a feature that will not be of that much economic value to the developer to spend time on implementing since it will not result in allot of more sales, but maybe only a few sales extra. Time = money BUT ofcourse it depend how easy it is to make. I am not a game developer but i imagine that multicrew code they can get from eagle dynamics for free since its should be some kind of "framework" in the game engine that can be re used and copy/pasted into the mi8. Technical speaking the mi8 is great and one person can today click all buttons ect.. I dont really see it should be that difficult to implement that two "single players" are in the same cockpit (different seat ).. BUT that only the pilot can fly the helicopter ( when alive ) and when dead co pilot get the controls of the trottle and stick automatic. OR a keyboard command to switch who can fly the heli. It should also be pretty easy to make the co-pilot able to switch seats from co-pilot to gunner 1 and 2. I also dont see any issues with "two singplayers in one cockpit" that click buttons.. except if they click something at the same time then it will be a double click. Basicly its a "single player" helicopter, but where two "single players" can click the same buttons, they just sit in two different seats.

As the other guys say GBU-12's or Jdams since you cannot carry that many maveric missiles. But dropping many GBU's i dare to call unrealistic in "real" war. Tanks are not undefended against air targets in real life.. so expect several shilkas or tunguskas in the area that follow the tanks for air support and other long range systems that protect them + CAP planes. ( think of defence as an onion with several layers that need to be removed before you reach the tanks). They dont have to shoot you down, they just have to "stop" you from attacking and hitting anyting ( scare you away ) to be successfull. Basicly forget about dropping many GBU's, you can only lase one target at a time, meaning if you are to take out 4 tanks you will have to stay high above the target area for a really long longe time my guess +8 minutes and that is not good in war. ( imagine enemy already have called for enemy fighters to kill you that are on the way. In 8 minutes a fighter plane in the air can fly very far and intercept you. Ofcourse it depend on situation and in some situations you can stay arround for longer due to air superiotity or other people protecting you. The best advice IF you are to hit allot of stationary dug down tanks and want to kill as many as fast in a surprise atack then use jdams, you can drop example 6 jdams fast and from far away, and they hit almost at the same time so tanks have no time to leave their possition. However maybe it will be best to bring the maveric + your wingman since the maveric can hit both stationary but also moving targets.. The jdam cannot hit moving targets... Just saying situation might change and tanks start to move, then what, now your only option is to get down low and drop bombs with ccip mode and its speculative if you hit anything, and also you risk recieving damage to your plane.. ;-) All in all what people typical do wrong is they get down to low or get to close to the target and then their "fragile" plane get hit by a bullet and things end badly. Being trigger happy or carry as many bombs as possible is not the best idea in many cases especially in multiplayer. Long story short use the right tool for the job.

Thank you very much, it worked ;-)

Question..: I have installed simple radio standalone and it is working ingame ect. My problem is that simple radio will not detect my Trottle, so i cannot use any button on my trottle and assign a button to talk. I can only use my joystick. Im using the virpil t50 joystick and trottle mongoost t-50 I hope someone can help me ;-) What should i do to make simple radio detect my trottle ? ( ps.. I also tried to only connect my trottle and it still was not detected. ) Thanks for a fantastic piece of software. Thanks in advance.

I did a tiny test of the harpoon before the current patch. And i notised that a harpoon only damge a russian war ship by about 3% I cant remember the name of the ship but maybe its the same for all ships that the harpoon need to be adjusted so it deliver more damage. ( the harpoon system is WIP and it need some more updates/fine tuning )

Question..: I signed up for the turnament on day 1 and recived one e-mail with a confirmation and a little bit of information that say. Any questions about the tournament should be directed to Ryan Charpentier at xxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxx Your next step as a participant is to watch the Splash One Gaming Fight for Honor webpage (https://splashonegaming.com/foh) for your first match details --------------------- Today 25 days later there are no info avaliable as far as i know. I looked on the link above, and the discord.. I also looked at dcs discord but cannot find any specific page for it either. I was just wondering if everything is okay, and when can we expect to get info about what time to show up, IP address of teamspeak and other releavant tournament information. ? Thanks for info. ( my name in competition = delle )

regarding infantry, then they could start with giving all nations 4 different infantry men rifle, mg, AT, anti air But in general a complete rework of the damage models of all units, and an update of above ect.

The harpoon in its current "early access" state only do about 3% damage to a large russia war ship. ( cant recall the name of it ). All though the harpoon is no wonder weapon then i thought i add that I today in the news read that one of the armerican helicopter carriers actual have problems with small boats/ships and have difficulty defending against small targets.. so the actual put an armored vehicle on the deck of it to protect it against low flying misisles/drones and boats near iran. Now think about DCS that mimic the cold war era ( primary 70's -year 90's planes/ships ect. ) I suppose these kind of ships where less efficient at detecting the harm and also shooting it down than now a days. I think the best way to use harms are to analyze in what direction the ship is sailing and then try to study from what angle is the ships defences the weakest. Lets face it a broad side is a very large target where many aa guns can shoot, while if your missile come at a 30degree angle maybe only 1 aa gun can shoot.

small update. I found out after Tippis advice that my missions where corrupted. I have with success restored my missions from an external usb harddisk. Thank for the help.

Hi thanks for information. I think all of the 20-30 missions i have from before 26th june are damaged.. I will try and find some backup and try if that fix the problem

Hello and thanks for the reply. I am using the Danish version of windows 10 64bit and my file structure is a little bit different than std English version i think In documents i dont have the folder you write about, but instead it uses the following location. MY file structure is C:\Users\MY-name\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Missions I tried to copy my missions to c:\missions and then started dcs world and manual navigate to the folder. I still only see 5 missions out of 20-30 missions in total. I have attached a simple mission for multiple planes that i made last year, and this mission i cannot load or see in dcs world anymore If anyone like to give it a try, then copy my mission and see if it show up in your game.. delle-airport-strike-1.miz ps.. Many planes are avaliable, and the mission is about flying low inbetween mountains and taking out a runway.. its pretty good ;-) delle-airport-strike-1.miz

I have notised something strange with dcs, the file system seem to be stuck The problem is that when i press missions and want to load a user made mission wich are stored in savegames@dcs.openbeta\missions then the directory never "update" it self so all files become avaliable. Its like its stuck in the past. I tried to rename the folder C:\Users\MY-name\Saved Games\ to save game1 hoping it would force dcs to update the directory But dcs still see the missions on location C:\Users\MY-name\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Missions Next i tried to delete the savedgames folder But dcs can still see and navigate the now deleted folder and even load one of the 5 visible missions. I tried to cleanup dcs and repaired dcs world open beta. But it still have a ghost directory and are able to navigate the deleted folders inside of dcs.. Its like dcs is "stuck in time" and that the file system does not update any folder that i navigate to. Are there some kind of cache in Dcs directory that i can delete or backup that i can delete ?

Hello I have like 20-30 missions that i made for dcs during 2018 and 2019. But when i startup dcs world 2,5 beta then only 5 missions are visible inside of dcs and dcs can no longer see all missions before may 2019 i think. From within dcs world ( main menu ) I tried looking via missions but can only see 5 out of 20-30 mission I tried making a MP server missions but can only see 5 out of 20-30 mission I open the editor but can only see 5 out of 20-30 mission Outside of dcs via windows I can see all of my missions in the folder C:\Users\MY-name\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Missions I was wondering is this a glitch or something ? My dcs world 2,5 open beta is uptodate and i have repaired/updated it a few days ago. Thank you for help in advance.

huey ka50 Mi8 ( its really good but more complex than the huey ) gazelle ( it feel like an arcade helicopter physics and how it feel to fly it is feel kind of liniar and less simple than the other helis.

im not sure, but try to check that you successfull entered the coordinates.. and also check your ccrp auto bomb mode is still active in the hud and look for errors on the weapon loadout page ( example maybe the fuse of a bomb is wrong and there is an X preventing the bomb to be released.

Dear ED. Just wanted to say thank you for the targeting pod, i/we have been looking forward to this for many month. Now we have a chance to find and target the enemy on the ground, and will bring so much more to the already amazing hornet ;-) And now we also now hornet pilots will be allot more deadly when it come to ground attacks it is a game changer. Thanks to wags for the informative and easy to understand tutorial videos. Thank you.

I can confirm it is working using the TGP and LGB GBU 12 bombs. thanks for the guide.. Master Arm AG mode Select LGB Set lase code EFUZ inst MFUZ off Mode Auto Pod On SS to Flir Find target, TDC down to designate LSD Arm Fly towards target Pickle button press and hold 10 sec before cue Weapon releases Squeeze trigger L Arm goes to LTD/R TTI counter goes to zero basicly i do the above guide and both with ccip and auto it work but the first times i tried it did not work. I think the trick is to look at target and TDC down key ( basicly it say to the plane "hey" look at this point on the ground/coordinate and aim auto bomb mode here".. ... once you press this you see the auto bomb line in the hud by the way. And then ofcourse remember to enter the laser code for each bomb. If done correctly you see the auto ccrp line and in the right side some text. If there is an X above auto then you did something wrong. If the text is visible without no X above text it should work. And ofcourse on my joystick i have 2 detent trigger button. So i only have to press the gun trigger down half way and then it changes from Larm to CRD/R ( on the tgp screen ). And i drop from 20.000 feet 350knots. The two times it worked i did NOT exit to external or weapon view but was inside the cockpit all the time.. dont know if it make a difference or not.. but try.

Wizard_03 is spot on. The Recce event button IRL allows the pilot to mark a time in the MC for maintenance purpose as In the FA18c manual it also say Page 213 in manual Additionally, HMD manual blanking can be toggled by pressing the RECCE button on the control stick. When enabled, all HMD symbology is hidden. And ( page 57 ) Recce event mark. In the early access, this can be used to blank the helmet mounted display when pressed. It will also serve to toggle between AGM-65G centroid vs. force correlate tracking.

I would say start with the huey its rather simple but need study the part about how to land a few times and learn what MAX decent/speed to use to land safe. Els the ka 50 is really god as well. But the heli that i think fly the best is the Mi8. Landing is the most difficult, and the buttons and navigation system take time to learn. THere are tons of buttons.. But a really great heli. - I will not recommend the gazelle... its beautifull but it feel a bit like an arcade helicopter since the feeling of flight just feel different than the 3 other helicopters.

Interesting scematics and conclution, thanks for sharing. Note..: I see you are using the intel 7700 cpu.. Its a really good gaming cpu. I do however like to add that people should be aware that HT with an older model cpu compared to newer cpus that you might see other results since "modern/new" cpu's from example 2018 and forward uses HT and cores more intelligent than older cpu's do. Example there is a big difference from the ryzen 7 1800x vs the ryzen 7 2700x since the 2700x uses its core in a more intelligent way. Example it better slow down some of its 8 cores ( 16 threats ) and boost the speed of other cores in a better way. ( Currently pretty much all games on the market is developed so the most common gaming pc can run a game well, wich mean games are typical designed to run on 4 cores and the rest of the cores often are being used or not optimized since its really hard to program. So often do not take full advantage of all the cores ect.. Once vulcan engine get implemented it will be much better since it uses the hardware cores and gpus much better than directx does ) ;-) Anyway be aware that intel and different cpu's might not behave excactly as the intel 7700cpu in the test ;-)

copy paste... Thanks for the turnament, hosting and thanks to the sponsor as well ;-) And nice stream and comments as well. I think it was great there was a dedicated person to keep track of people and tell us in what slot to go and who to fight it worked really well. You where kind to jump in and give us password and even start the match and count down if we dident already do it our self. The "internal" document about who should fight who next time was really good. Using zulu time was a good choice, I think almost everybody show up at the right time. Maybe it would be good if you used one of the Online countdown clocks as well, then nobody will be comfused about zulue time or time zones in general. ;-) ( maybe debate this ) Maybe it would be good if planes had less fuel and it was forbidden to dump fuel. That way the match will be shorter so the live stream do not have to watch two people flying in a circle for 10 minutes. What you in my case could not see is that the opponment dumped fuel for a long time before the stream start and then i push him waiting for him to run out ;-) Unfortunatly this happen when you look at me and my apponment in the stream, the previous fights had actual been really good and interesting and shorter. In general i think the fights where more interesting to fight than how it look on the stream ( in my case ) ;-) Small suggestion..: Maybe it would be a good idea if the passwords used in the competition is more easy to remember and spell. THere are people from all over the world with different english ability and computer skill.. Maybe use simple passwords such as house1224 cat556 dog991 ;-) I know its not good passwords but since the password only are live for 2-3 houres then i think its okay. - no need to debate here, but think about it for future events. Anyway thank you and everyone who where part of it both the host and the people who dared to risk their life and plane being part of the event ;-)

Here is the page with Teamspeak info. http://community.104thphoenix.com/topic/269-104th-phoenix-teamspeak3-server-details/ Regarding other questions above about the competition. When they previously had the F14 dogfight competition then it was on the Caucasus map, and there was 4 dogfights at a time, far appart from each other. The person who stream the event live, then sit and change inbetween the individual dogfights and comment as it goes on. And behind the scene i imagine there will be someone who are responsible for telling who have to fight who, and what teamspeak channel they should jump to and so on. ;-)

I dont know when the video is from.. BUT a few of the early pods was used in combat in afghanistan and later on in 2004 Deployments were extended to the legacy F/A-18C in mid-2004, and the pod is also fully compatible with the F/A-18A+/B+ models. here is an article about it. https://www.ainonline.com/aviation-news/defense/2006-12-12/proven-combat-raytheon-asq-228-gets-upgraded
